Located at First and Locust in Grand Island, the rectangular two-story limestone and brick building in this 5-1/2" x 3-1/2" colorized postcard has a mansard roof with iron railings and a tower over the entrance. A grand staircase at the front takes visitors to the first floor. A side door at ground level provides access to the daylight basement. On the reverse is a green, one-cent Benjamin Franklin profile postage stamp affixed upside down.

This second courthouse built for Hall County was designed by Thomas R. Kimball in the Beaux-Arts style, and construction (1901-1904) of the courthouse and the jail built onto the rear cost $131,703.45. The structure, still in use as a courthouse, is on the National Register of Historic Places. The jail moved to other facilities in 1977.
